NextInput Introduces World’s Best Mobile Side Button Solutions

May 17, 2017 04:06 PM Eastern Daylight Time

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--NextInput, Inc., the leading provider of ForceTouch™ solutions,
introduces the first MEMS-based mobile side button module to expedite
market adoption. Handset OEMs are differentiating their products with
new seamless industrial designs eliminating mechanical buttons.
NextInput turnkey modules replace volume buttons and enable new features
such as sliders and grip sensors that can be mapped to any application
short cut.

NextInput solutions perform accurately over temperature and changing
environmental conditions, have excellent RF immunity and much higher
reliability. Alternate technologies, such as strain gauge, are hard to
activate due to low sensitivity, significantly eroding the user
experience.

“We have introduced a turnkey drop-in module to replace side buttons in
mobile devices,” says Ali Foughi, NextInput CEO and Founder. “Our
solution can sense force through thick side walls and is extremely
responsive, resulting in a superior user experience.”

NextInput started sampling its side button modules to OEMs this month.
The module form factor can be customized to OEM specifications.
